Fu Yu had a crush on Fu Chunhua, because a begonia flower secretly embroidered on the collar was really hammered.

Zhou Jingrong leaned on Fu Yunshen's arms and said to him very proudly: "Look, I have a pair of eyes that can see through secrets. ”

Fu Yunshen ruthlessly poured cold water and said: "It's just a crooked hit." ”

Zhou Jingrong turned around dissatisfied: "Young man, why can't you face up to my excellence?" ”

Fu Yunshen grabbed the people moving around in his arms, and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't move!" ”

Zhou Jingrong didn't have the slightest sense of anger, and immediately pursed her mouth to show a look of grievance: "You murder me!" ”

Fu Yunshen hurriedly softened his tone and denied: "I didn't." ”

Zhou Jingrong was unrelenting, and she couldn't bear any grievances: "You obviously have it!" ”

As she spoke, she struggled to get up, but was pressed back into her arms by Fu Yunshen, locked her with her hands and feet, and said helplessly: "Can't you stay honest?" ”

Zhou Jingrong seemed to have been immobilized by Fu Yunshen, and was firmly restrained by Fu Yunshen, unable to move, and couldn't be honest if he wanted to, so he could only choose to give in without love.

After a while, the voice of string singing suddenly sounded outside: "Second master, second grandmother, Rong Shengxing sent someone to deliver the booklet." ”

Zhou Jingrong suddenly felt that the savior was coming, and quickly pushed Fu Yunshen, asked him to let go of her, tidied up her appearance again, and said, "Come in." ”

After Xian Ge came in, he didn't stay long, put down the booklet and left.

Fu Yunshen waved his long arm and took Zhou Jingrong into his arms again. Zhou Jingrong was helpless, so she had to lean on him and look through the auction album.

Auction houses hold auctions at different times, usually based on the number of lots received, sometimes several times a month, sometimes only once every few months.

Each auction has to draw many auction albums, and each album has to draw a dozen or more kinds of lots.

Zhou Jingrong didn't have the time and energy to do this, so she invited several painters to free herself.

As for the holding of the auction, Zhou Yong was in charge, and she was idle as a shopkeeper.

Fu Yunshen glanced at the album and asked, "Do you have anything you like, I'll buy it for you." ”

Zhou Jingrong had to admit that when she heard others say "swipe my card" in the past, she would always disdain that person to pretend. But actually, when she heard this kind of thing herself, it was really refreshing.

Zhou Jingrong was immersed in Fu Yunshen's boyfriend MAX, but suddenly thought of one thing.

Fu Yunshen had given her many gifts, but she rarely seemed to give him anything, only ...... Not a single one?!

Zhou Jingrong didn't believe that she would be so cheeky, and she didn't return the gift after accepting the gift from others, so she quickly counted the list of gifts exchanged between the two in her mind.

Fu Yunshen once spent time designing and making special brushes for her, and as for the precious famous paintings, pen, ink, paper, and inkstones that were given to her, there were countless and could not be counted.

She has no concept of rouge gouache, gold and silver jewelry, but what Fu Yunshen gave her is the most expensive and the best.

When her shop is in trouble, he will also give her some advice, help her with ideas, and even give her financial support.

These things can't be quantified, but she never seems to be grateful, and always accepts them with peace of mind.

Thinking about it, the things she gave him that could be seen and touched seemed to be only a purse and a set of clothes, the purse was bought and not made by herself, and the clothes were for him to help with free publicity......

Zhou Jingrong knocked her head in annoyance, her girlfriend is too incompetent!

Fu Yunshen was startled, grabbed her hand, gently rubbed her forehead, and pretended to be angry and said, "Who allowed you to beat my lady?" ”

Zhou Jingrong was amused by him, and honestly snuggled in his arms, secretly thinking in his heart, asking Zhou Yong to help keep an eye on it and collect some good things for him.

On this day, Zhou Jingrong heard that the shop had received a tablet from a calligrapher from the previous dynasty, she was not interested in these things, but thinking that Fu Yunshen would definitely like it, she planned to leave the tablet in a hurry.

When he came to Rongshengxing, Zhou Yong saw her and breathed a sigh of relief: "Second grandma, I was about to look for you." ”

Zhou Jingrong asked, "Something?" ”

Zhou Yong's face became a little solemn again, and his tone was very self-reproachful: "At the auction, a fake went out. ”

Zhou Jingrong was shocked: "How come?" ”

In order to prevent this from happening, Zhou Jingrong deliberately mobilized the connections of Master Zhou and Fu Yunshen, and found several experienced appraisal masters to work in the auction house to ensure that the items received and sold would not be fakes, but I didn't expect this to happen.

Zhou Yong hung his head and said: "It is the "Rare Bird Picture" of the Qing Void and Scattered People, which was originally identified, and it is indeed a genuine work, and it is very valuable. But a few hours later, the buyer came to the door again, claiming that the painting was a fake. At a second glance, this painting has become a copy, not the previous one, it should have been transferred. ”

Zhou Yong paused, and said with some hesitation: "The painting was jointly appraised by several masters, and they assured me that this painting was indeed genuine when it went out, but when it came back, it became a copy......

Zhou Jingrong frowned: "Could it be that the thief shouted to catch the thief?" ”

Zhou Yong showed a look of embarrassment and confusion: "I thought so at the beginning, but first, there is no evidence, and secondly, there are few paintings of Qingxu Sanren in the world, and this painting is also made by him for a friend, and this is the first public appearance." Except for the seller, no one had seen the painting before, so there was no possibility of copying it in advance. Judging from the time, in just a few hours, there is still a round trip to the distance, and there is no condition to be able to temporarily copy the real paintings, so how to adjust the package is really bizarre. Third, the identity of this buyer ......"

Zhou Jingrong hurriedly asked, "Who is it?" ”

Zhou Yong replied: "It's the two Yayuan in this township test, Tang Yi." ”

Zhou Jingrong has some impressions of this Tang Yi, not only because his ranking is only below Fu Yunshen, but also because some time ago, the heroine Jing Si in the Fu Yunshen concubine incident who made a lot of noise had just promised someone, and the person who promised her was Tang Yi.

Zhou Yong sighed with a sad face: "Coincidentally, Tang Yi bought this painting to give it to his father-in-law, Jing County Lieutenant, and after getting the painting, he sent it directly to Jing Mansion. Jing Mansion was entertaining guests, and Jing County Lieutenant showed the painting to everyone, but someone immediately pointed out that this painting was a copy of the work, not an authentic work. The lieutenant of Jing County was furious and learned that this painting was from Rong Shengxing, so he almost led his troops to seal it directly. It was Tang Yi who mediated and suppressed the anger of the county lieutenant for the time being, but he wanted to talk to you about this matter. ”

Jing County Lieutenant is the adjutant of the Song County Order, in charge of military affairs, and is equivalent to the second-in-command of the county government. He was a rough man with a hot temper, and when he learned that his son-in-law had been deceived, he himself had lost face in front of all the guests, of course he couldn't bear it.

Zhou Jingrong didn't want to have a head-on conflict with him, so he agreed to meet with Tang Yi for a detailed discussion.

Zhou Jingrong went to see Tang Yi accompanied by Zhou Yong.

Tang Yi's appearance is quite delicate, but the sunken eye sockets and blue and black undereyes seriously lower his appearance, which is caused by staying up late all year round and malnutrition.

Come to think of it, he also put in a lot of effort to get good results.

Tang Yi greeted the two politely: "Mrs. Sister-in-law, Steward Zhou." ”

Zhou Jingrong calmly invited him to take a seat: "Tang Gongzi, please take a seat." ”

After Tang Yi sat down, he didn't go around the bend, and went straight to the point: "Regarding the matter of "Rare Birds", I don't know how my sister-in-law plans to deal with it?" ”

Zhou Jingrong said: "Since it is an imitation, the auction money will naturally be refunded in full." In addition, as an apology, we will compensate for 20% of the original price of this painting. However, I plan to report to the official to deal with the loss of the authentic work of "Rare Birds", and I will ask Tang Gongzi to cooperate at that time. ”

Tang Yi smiled and said: "Mrs. Sister-in-law is polite, and she should cooperate." However, a certain has a friendship with Brother Fu, so how can he accept additional compensation. But if you can get a picture of your sister-in-law's wife, Mobao, and exchange one painting for another, I think the county lieutenant will be very happy. ”

Although the lieutenant of Jing County is not familiar with elegant things, he has to make up for the lost face. Zhou Jingrong's painting skills and fame are not as good as those of the Qing Dynasty, but he has a high reputation in Puhe County, and he can still support the scene.

Tang Yi's request was reasonable, and it could be regarded as giving both sides a step, and Zhou Jingrong immediately responded happily.

After returning home, Zhou Jingrong truthfully informed Fu Yunshen of the matter, and said that she had promised Tang Yi to compensate with paintings, but she was strongly opposed by Fu Yunshen: "No, you can't paint him!" ”

Zhou Jingrong thought that Fu Yunshen was suspicious of Tang Yi, so he said: "There are indeed many doubts in this matter, and the biggest suspect in the transfer of "Rare Bird Picture" is Tang Yi. But the crux of the matter now is not this, but to appease Tang Yi and Lieutenant Jing so that they don't make a big deal out of it, so as not to damage Rong Shengxing's reputation. ”

Fu Yunshen's expression was serious, and he insisted: "Tang Yi is not a good person, don't believe what he says, and there is no need to agree to his conditions, I will investigate this matter clearly." ”

Zhou Jingrong disagreed: "Yes, we must investigate this matter clearly, but before the matter is conclusive, we should still follow the normal workflow to meet the customer's requirements." It's just a painting, it won't take me a lot of time, but it can avoid a lot of disputes, isn't it a good deal? ”

Zhou Jingrong is thinking about it completely for the benefit of the shop, but it is obvious that Fu Yunshen and her are not on the same channel.

He frowned: "But you painted it yourself, I don't like you to paint other people's men." ”

Zhou Jingrong wanted to laugh helplessly, but he never expected that what he cared about was this, and enlightened him seriously: "The cartoons I drew are read by many men every day; Most of the targeted customers of Qi Wuju are men, and the membership card is made by me; Oh, and I even painted a portrait of Ye Xiyang! If you care about this kind of thing, no amount of vinegar is enough to eat. I'm a painter, and painting is my way of making a living. To put it bluntly, my paintings are valuable commodities, just commodities, so what's there to care about? ”

"A means of livelihood?" Fu Yunshen was slightly displeased with Zhou Jingrong's statement: "I thought you were painting for fun, but it turns out that you are here to make a living?" Shouldn't your means of livelihood be me, or do you think I can't afford to support you? ”
